Fake-ID Use Among Fraternity/Sorority Members

Abstract

The author explores differences among fraternity/sorority members and nonmembers in the use of and attitudes about fake IDs. Data from this study of 3,780 students from 12 institutions across the country indicate that fraternity/sorority affiliated students were almost three times as likely to have a Jake ID and maintain less healthy attitudes about them when compared to non-affiliated students. The researcher identifies recommendations for professionals working with this community.
